River-Run Backyard Ultra

• Course Details: The River-Run Backyard Ultra features a scenic, flat course that follows the Tukituki River. Runners will experience a mix of limestone and dirt paths, offering a pleasant natural setting for the endurance challenge.

• Event Format: Participants are required to complete a loop within each hour, using any remaining time within that hour for recovery. The competition continues until only one runner is able to complete an additional lap when no other competitors can.

• Children’s Race: A special format for children is available, involving a shorter loop that they run every 10 minutes for one hour.

• Charitable Aspect: Proceeds from the race are contributed to the Waipukurau Rotary River Pathways Trust, supporting local community projects.
